Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • In a large bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

  • Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  • Fold in the chopped macadamia nuts and semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • Drop tablespoon-sized dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet spaced about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until cookies are set around the edges and slightly soft in the center.
  • Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
